TrailBoss Duramax Owner in SoCal

[texanfisherman]

I love the concept of RTTs, but still never fully understand the why of them. They increase the center of gravity on the truck, add a bunch of weight, and are very expensive. Ground tents make more sense to me. Not hating, and I understand why people go with them. I just doesn't make sense value-wise to me. The irony is I'm saying this as somebody who chose a Trail Boss LT with the 6.2 instead of an AT4 with 3.0. Your truck looks good. Welcome to the forum.

I wish I had waited for the ZR2. I have a tight parking situation, so I needed power folding mirrors. Also wanted cooled seats for summer. So, I have a 3.0 LTZ with trail boss suspension.

Grab a front bumper and items shown in the attached pic and you'll have your ZR2. As for the tight parking situation, isn't that the case with every parking spot in SoCal. I left San Diego on July 1. Since then I've only seen larger parking spots. West Florida has it good. Many places don't even have painted parking spots. You just park where you want as long as it's not a road. Lots of dirt and grass parking spots.

Thanks for the parts list. For sure on the parking situation. Everything here seems to get drawn small even though most vehicles here are full size truck or SUVs. On the parts for the zr2, finding stuff for a Duramax 3.0 truck is a pain in the a$$. Everything says gas only regardless of whether it really fits or not. Lazy.

I understand the "This item doesn't fit your vehicle" crap. I'm usually able to find a work around. Other times it's straight up fabrication/modification.
